The Markets
Stocks slipped on Friday as a much stronger than expected report of payrolls reignited concerns that the Fed will be forced to continue hiking rates for the foreseeable future. The S&P 500 Index closed with a loss of 1.04%, pulling back towards recently broken horizontal resistance at 4100. A convergence of moving averages between 3900 and 4000, approximately bookending recently broken declining resistance, defines a point of support below this market as it seeks to build on the breakout that has been recorded over the past couple of weeks. Momentum indicators are moving past the narrowing, neutral bound that they have been in for the past few months and overbought territory is being flirted with. While the breakouts could pull in sidelined cash given hints of the shift of trajectory upon us, in our work, the more enticing opportunity to become outright accumulators of domestic equities over a sustainable timeframe is when a path of higher-highs and higher lows, supported by 50-week moving averages, becomes defined.We are merely in stage one of this shift and the risk-reward is not providing much incentive to lean towards the bull or bear camp. For now, a neutral bias remains desired, but there are still plenty of areas where we can take more of a directional bet, either bullish or bearish (see our weekly chart books for further insight).
